27.06.13-05.07.13 - Kehidupan di hospital adalh mencabar keimanan. Hari2 masuk at least 3 bottles of drip. 4 kali sehari ambik darah. 2 jam sekali check blood pressure, temperature and heartbeat. Day in day out cam blur je x sedar apa jd. Hospital's foods suck. Lg sanggup kena cucuk ambik darah drpd kena mkn mknn spital. Setiap kali mknn smpai rasa nk menangis. Setiap kali lepas dinner time (which is the last meal of the day) berasa sgt gembira sbb xyah nk kena mkn lg dh utk hari tu. Huhu. 1st day kt wad dtg org dr pejabat kesihatan interview background n possibilities kenapa bleh kena denggi. Disoal siasat mcm2. Dh rasa mcm seorg yg bersalah plak. Huhu. Diberitahu yg mereka akan dtg memfogging rumah kt kg n rumah KL jg dlm masa terdekat.
Masuk hari ke-2 ke ke-3 ke duduk spital Docs came to a conclusion yg sy ni bkn la demam denggi tp dijangkiti leptospirosis atau dlm bahasa yg mudah difahami oleh kita2 ni ialah kencing tikus. Sbb bloodtest result tak menunjukkan ciri2 yg selari dgn simtom2 denggi tp lebih menjurus ke arah ciri2 kencing tikus. Say what?!!
(Info break sekejap: Leptospirosis - also known as Weil's syndrome, canicola fever, canefield fever, nanukayami fever, 7-day fever, Rat Catcher's Yellows, Fort Bragg fever, black jaundice, and Pretibial fever is caused by infection with bacteria of the genus Leptospira and affects humans as well as other animals.
Leptospirosis is among the world's most common diseases transmitted to people from animals. The infection is commonly transmitted to humans by allowing water that has been contaminated by animal urine to come in contact with unhealed breaks in the skin, the eyes, or with the mucous membranes. Leptospirosis is transmitted by the urine of an infected animal and is contagious as long as it is still moist. Although rats, mice, and moles are important primary hosts, a wide range of other mammals including dogs, deer, rabbits, hedgehogs, cows, sheep, raccoons, opossums, skunks, and certain marine mammals are able to carry and transmit the disease as secondary hosts.
Humans become infected through contact with water, food, or soil containing urine from these infected animals. This may happen by swallowing contaminated food or water or through skin contact. The disease is not known to be spread from person to person and cases of bacterial dissemination in convalescence are extremely rare in humans. Leptospirosis is common among water-sport enthusiasts in specific areas as prolonged immersion in water is known to promote the entry of the bacteria. Surfers and whitewater paddlers[7] are at especially high risk in areas that have been shown to contain the bacteria, and can contract the disease by swallowing contaminated water, splashing contaminated water into their eyes or nose, or exposing open wounds to infected water.
Symptoms of leptospirosis include high fever, severe headache, chills, muscle aches, and vomiting, and may include jaundice, red eyes, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and rash. Initial presentation may resemble pneumonia. The symptoms in humans appear after a 4–14 day incubation period. More severe manifestations include meningitis, extreme fatigue, hearing loss, respiratory distress, azotemia, and renal interstitial tubular necrosis, which results in renal failure and occasionally liver failure.

Sambung balik. Kencing tikus??? Bercampur-baur perasaan bila dengar kena kencing tikus. Denggi tu biasa la lg. Ni kencing tikus. Seriau dengar. Tetiba teringat kes2 org2 glamer yg meninggal sbb ni. Huwaaa... Mcmana bleh kena kena ni?? Ye itulah persoalan yg asik diajukan oleh para2 doktor dan juga org pejabat kesihatan. Oh org pejabat kesihatan dtg lg. Tp org lain sbb yg haritu org dept denggi yg ni org dept kencing tikus plak. Mcm2. Hensem org itu tp nmpk kanak2 lg. Pass. Kembali disoal-selidik seperti sebelum ini. Asik ditanya ada masuk hutan x dlm masa terdekat ni? Ada mandi sungai x? Berkali2 menegaskan yg sy xde masuk hutan apatah lg mandi sungai. Sy ni pegi keje balik keje terus ke rumah je incik. Nak bersosial pn jrg2 sekali apatah lg mau ke hutan. Kalu ditanya soalan ini pd opismate sy Cik Pah mgkin lain la jwpnnya. (Cik Pah mmg suka bersosial di hutan. Mau mencari bakal suami Tarzan gamaknya. Jgn mara aa Cik Pah. Hihi.) Tp kalu tnya pd sy mmg nan ado la jwpnnya. Bkn spesis adventurous maupun berminat nk jd bini the Jungle Boy. Maka kesimpulan telah dibuat bahawa kemungkinan sy mendapat virus ini dr mknn tercemar yg mgkin telah dimkn. Maka dinasihatkan utk lebih berhati2 di masa akan dtg dan lebih baik mkn mknn yg dimasak sendiri shj. If only it was that easy. I am a working lady incik. Balik keje ptg2 dh penat. Throw the bujang factor in there too. Xde sbb sgt pn nk masak. Kalu masak pn weekend je incik oi. Sigh.
Demam x jgk surut2. Jam ni ok jam berikutnya gigil2 lg. Temperature asik 38°C n above je. BP yg biasa ok tetiba ada naik sikit maybe sbb stress dok spital gamaknya. Lengan dh lebam biru kena cucuk ambik darah 4 kali sehari smpai nurse dh x jmpa area mana bleh cucuk lg. Somemore drip yg asalnya kt tgn kiri dikhuatiri kena infection maka ditransfer ke tgn kanan plak. Dah jd dua2 tgn sakit la plak. Cmne nk mkn? Cmne nk gi toilet? Hazabedah ok. Proses nk memasang tmpt drip n memakai drip adalah hazab jg. Jari jemari jd kebas keras kejung serta gemuk bengkak lg. Uhuk2. Result blood test hari2 makin drop. Platelet count yg 272 sebelum masuk spital tu keep on dropping smpai plg low tggl 50 lbih je. Dilaporkan juga ada berlaku kerosakan hati. Hati rosak? Huwaaa.. Tahap kegundah-gulanaan hati Allah sj yg tau. Smpt jgk la pikir adakah ini pengakhiran buat diriku ini? Sadis.
Sbb dh disaspek kencing tikus maka treatment dari Docs dh lain la dari sebelum ni sbb sebelum ni ingt denggi kn. Maka treatment kali ni include doses of powerful antibiotics pula. 2 kali sehari kena mkn, sekali sehari kena inject ngn satu tiub besar. When i say powerful mmg power la sbb x penah2 dlm sejarah hidup my body yg selama ini bg la ubat apa pn sume jln tetiba ada reaction dgn ubat. Body xleh terima antibiotics tu ok. Setiap kali mkn ubat x smpai 10 min pastu badan akan rasa nk pitam, pedih hati n rasa nk muntah yg melampau. Happen everytime setiap kali lps mkn ubat tu. Nurses siap dh standby dgn injections setiap kali sy mkn ubat. Start je rasa nk pitam tu diorg jab terus ubat tahan sakit. Docs pn pelik sbb x penah lg diorg jmpa patient yg xleh terima ubat tu. Org lain ok je. Even auntie nyonya wargaemas katil seberang sana yg disaspek kes sama pn rilek je mkn ubat tu. Lps mkn ubat leh tido dengkur2 lg. Sy sorg je yg lain mcm. Dah kenapa dgn kau ni Cik Ta? Sigh..
Bersambung lg. Kira buat 3 episod la ek. Kunun2 trilogi la.. Pfftt trilogi la sgt.. *tgn di bahu mata ke atas* ;p
